I went to a Thomas Anders concert at the War Memorial. The venue is on the older side, but it's…read moreactually not bad at all. The chairs in the orchestra section are a bit small, but pretty typical for a theater. We sat in the first two rows, which gave us plenty of space to move around and stand up when we wanted. It cost a little extra, but the added room was worth it. Parking was a big plus--there's a lot right next to the theater, and it was free. For refreshments, they only offered water and bags of chips, so nothing substantial. I'd definitely recommend having lunch or dinner before the show since there aren't any real food options inside. The bathroom, located in the basement, reminded me of my old elementary school. The performance itself was great, and everything went smoothly. I hope Thomas Anders returns because I'd definitely come back. This venue is far better than The Ritz in Elizabeth, where he performed the past two years on tour.

First time attending a concert here so I didn't know what to expect…read more Parking is across the street and it fills up quickly so make sure to arrive early as it is a first come, first dib with parking space. There's no parking fee which is a huge plus in my book! The restrooms are down in the basement. It's small and dingy so I'd advise to use it as soon as you enter because there will be a line with the ladies. There's no bar stand so to buy any snacks and drinks, pay up at the entrance. The line and seatings are a bit disorganized but it's minor issue. People tried to get sneaky and sit whenever because no one checked tickets inside until the real seat purchaser shows up and kick them out. I got seatings in the orchestra second row from the stage and it was perfect! Not only am I close the band and artist performing but I sat in more comfortable seats, leg space and room to get up and dance. The first two rows are sectioned out away from the back row seatings and that was the best! I'm short and always dislike the feeling when people, especially taller people, are crowding me and standing right behind breathing on my back. With the way how sections are divided, they had to stand back! Kudos to the security guards for approaching ticket owners from the back rows for trying to come up front. Yes, these sneaky concert goers were removed from approaching the side of the first two rows. Some people just have no shame but hey, we got the last laugh when they were told to leave.

I can't believe I have lived in this area for so many years and never went to the Newtown Theater…read more It's a pretty cool space with some unique events tucked away on State Street. They do have a bar area and a popcorn stand. I went for their 90 minute cat video event. During the preshow I learned that this is the oldest theater is America! How crazy is that! They have some fantastic shows coming up including many tribute bands as well as movie showings. I'm really hoping to get tickets see Joan Osborne singing the songs of Bob Dylan. If you haven't been here I'd definitely check out their website or Facebook page to see what they have going on that might be of interest,

Not only did we get to enjoy a night out in this charming town, but we also had the chance to be part of a place filled with history and character. Walking into the theatre felt like stepping back in time in the best way--warm, classic, and full of heart. The ambience was absolutely perfect. The cozy, intimate setting made the entire experience feel personal and inviting. From the moment we walked in, the energy was welcoming. The fresh-popped popcorn added that nostalgic movie-night touch, and the bartenders and staff members were incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely happy to be there. Their hospitality made the night even better. We came to see The Ultimate Doors, and what a show! The sound, the vibe, and the atmosphere all came together to create a memorable night. It's rare to find a venue that feels both historic and alive, but Newtown Theatre gets it right. We would absolutely love to visit again. If you're thinking about catching a show here--do it. It's an experience you won't forget!

I've been going to shows at ActorsNET for 12 years, and a season-ticket holder for five. They just…read morekeep getting better and better! This little theater packs a punch with every performance. Joe Doyle's curtain speech is a performance in itself. The physical aspects of the theater are completely unprepossessing, from the cramped lobby to the intimate house (which seats approximately 90), but what they do in that space is amazing. This season started by wowing us with an adaptation Oscar Wilde's "An Ideal Husband" by MaryAlice Rubens-Topeleski. Some favorites from past seasons include (in no particular order, "Equivocation" by Bill Caine, "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" by Stephen Adly Guirgis, "Is He Dead Yet?" by Mark Twain, "It Can't Happen Here" (based on the novel by Sinclair Lewis) by Tony Taccone and Bennett Cohen, "Leading Ladies" by Ken Ludwig, "Underneath the Lintel" by Glen Berger, Shakespeare's "Merchant of Venice," and "A Man for All Seasons" by Robert Bolt. Tickets are very reasonably priced and you will not be disappointed if you go.

Kids and families could sign up to perform - a great opportunity for the kids and a true delight for the rest of us.

This is a community driven, playwright driven theater space in lovely downtown Trenton…read more The Mill Hill Playhouse is in an old stone Church which has been converted to this performance space, which houses The Passage Theater. F and I went to our first show here in May after living in Trenton for 16 years. Shame on us! We didn't know what we were missing! After, we interviewed the Artistic Director, C. Ryanne Domingues for our podcast Trentonwaves.com, we immediately purchased tickets for the current show Morir Sonyando. The plays mounted in this theater are relevant to situations and events that impact the citizens of our City. The play was fantastic! A 3 person drama that was well acted, staged and directed. We can't wait for the upcoming season to see what's in store.

We have been coming here almost every February see the Oscar Nominated shorts for years (both live…read moreaction and animated) They are always friendly and welcoming and the films are presented nicely. A volunteer always gives a good presentation speech. Also depending on the year they offer free coffee and cookies (they did this year). We are planning to come to the Trenton film festival which takes place soon. But you need to plan ahead in terms of snacks / tickets / restroom breaks. Some negatives: - Offer some sandwiches or something somewhat healthy for sale during intermission. In years past they had vendors but I guess these vendors don't want to sell there. - In the past I did "will call" for the tickets but they seem to get confused when you do that. So it is safest to bring your tickets printed out but they should accept more modern methods. - The ladies room is in disrepair. In the ladies room the stall door / wall literally started separating from the floor. So only one usable stall in the ladies room! This could be a safety issue as well. I told a staff member and she said she will tell the manager. I think the negatives are a result of budget issues but as other theaters are showing these types of films and there is more completion they will need to show some improvement.

The people you interact with there are all extremely nice. There are no bad seats in the house. And it's also a big plus that the in and out of the parking lot is really easy, even after the show ends! My only small criticism is that there is usually no live music played for the songs. But I totally understand this because the prices are so low. However, they did have a live band play music for "Beautiful," which was actually my favorite show that I saw there. I hope people will continue to support this gem of a theatre!

Little bags of popcorn and other snacks were available. Tickets were $30 person (they offer senior discounts). A great affordable day out! Extremely enjoyable afternoon!

My family and I ended up seeing the Holiday Extravaganza show on Saturday afternoon. It was…read moreprobably about an hour and a half. Overall, the show touched on all the different holidays this season. The show did a nice job in featuring most of the actors/actresses in different musical numbers. My niece had a great time and was singing with some of the songs. Some of the songs were a bit more interactive than others. The cast would walk in where the crowd was sitting and get everyone to clap. I would say they had great energy. I would go back and see this show again. Kelsey theatre usually puts on a nice production! After the show was over, they offered light refreshments in the lobby. Then you could also take pictures with Santa.

My first time there, I got to see my son star in Oklahoma as Curly. From the moment you walk into…read morethe theater lobby you notice how clean and bright it is. The Box Office and concession people as well as the ushers were super welcoming. Since we had almost an hour and a half ride, of course we had to hit up the bathrooms, which were super clean and updated. The tiered seating was ideal as I never had to have someone in front of me blocking my view. The seating was very comfortable with ample room so you did not feel squished. The stage basically floated off the first row of seating. I liked the intimacy of that. The stage setting for the show was just perfectly done. There was plenty of stage to move around for the actors whether it was during their dancing scenes, the wedding scene or the fighting scene, there was plenty of room. To the side of the stage, there was a separate "smokehouse room" which also provided a lot of up close and personal entertainment. We were right next to it during one of the best scenes in the show. There was a ramp way to get up to the first level of seating so if you have a hard time climbing stairs, I would suggest buying your tickets early. Speaking of tickets this Theatre and show tickets were half the price of other venues yet the show was just as professionally done as anywhere else we've been. Hope to return soon.

I came here for the Trenton International Film Festival and was so excited about the wonderful…read morevenue that this little stone church housed inside. The theater is small, but not tight, the ceiling are surprisingly high for such a small looking structure from the outside. The had a small refreshment stand inside, with a very friendly attendant and terrible coffee. If there was some wine offered, I would most definitely make this review a 5 star one. The parking situation was probably the most disappointing, on the website and in person they are very shady about where you can park. The theater itself does not have parking, and you are allowed to park in a no parking zone...supposedly. We were fortunate enough to come outside and no ticket or broken windows (large signs in theater warn you about leaving valuables in your car). Overall, I think I will run the risk of parking violation to enjoy the theater events again. I can't wait to come see an actual play, considering the audience gets to sit so close to the stage. Ticket prices were very reasonable, yet sadly most locals still do not attend. Can't wait until their next event!
